With just three weeks to go before we open the doors to E3S 2019, here’s an easily digestible rundown of what to expect…
It all kicks off at 9.30am on 8 October with a welcome address from AEG’s SVP and chief security officer Matt Bettenhausen, before a 90-minute counter terrorism tabletop exercise for all delegates.
After complimentary hot drinks, smoothies and cookies, the UK Government’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) run a workshop on cyber security for live events, while a main room panel looks at safeguarding vulnerable groups at shows.
After a sumptuous lunch and extended networking period, it’s back to business with talks on Machine Led Crowd Management, the Erasmus-funded SAFE training project, and The Solution Showdown presents a host of new ideas and products in quickfire format.
As the afternoon continues, our final panel looks at dealing with high risk shows, Sportspalais Antwerp report learnings from a 1,000-person attack simulation, we look at the latest trends in Human Behaviour Research, and Israeli security expert Ofer Grinboim Liron presents a unique approach.
Wrapping up the day with closing remarks is crowd management veteran Mark Hamilton, and by 17:30 we’re all relaxing with a few drinks and nibbles courtesy of those lovely folks at the European Arena Association.
If there’s a better use of an 8-hour period for safety and security professionals, we can’t think of one!
